We’ve based our production of “The Red Shoes” on the fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen (the guy in the photo with the rather impressive top hat). If you follow this link you’ll find the original story from 1845 that we have used as a starting point. Have a read and see what you think. We would be really interested to hear what you think the story is about. What do you like about it? What don’t you like? We’d also be really interested to see which aspect of the story you’d choose to focus on if you were going to put it on stage like we are. Get commenting now! We go into the rehearsal room on Monday and it will be good to have as many ideas in the pot to help inspire the piece of theatre that we are going to create.

The Red Shoes 
Brilliant adaptation and performance, on all hands.
With so many talented contributions, it would be nice if you could publish a programme, at least on this site, as there wasn’t one at the show.
Best Wishes for the future work of a company whose productions have really become something to look forward to.
Thanks Giles – we’ll get some info onto the site this week.
